Very fruity candy with lotion
The notes list sounds very interesting. Melon blossom? Never smelled that. Currant Liqueur? Nice idea. Caramel, milk, cotton candy? Yes please!
Now I'm not new to perfume and not naive enough to think a 7€ perfume will reinvent the wheel, and I also knew this was supposed to be a dupe of Viktor & Rolf Bonbon. But it's still a bit more boring than expected.
It does smell like Bonbon, but also a little bit like a Viva La Juicy flanker. Despite the name I wouldn't categorize it as a true gourmand, it's more of a sweet fruity floral. Like Bonbon, it's mainly a peach and mandarin/orange scent. It's been a while since I smelled the original, but from what I remember, it had more defined notes and was more decidedly caramelly. The sweetness in Boum Candy Land is more sugary.
There is also something creamy in this, creamy in the sense of "like a lotion", neither milky, nor like creamy caramel. I don't like this note, it's a bit disharmonious with the rest of the notes and makes it easy to recognize as the drugstore scent it is.
All in all this doesn't smell bad, but there are so many better scents in this genre that I wouldn't recommend it, even at the cheap price.
